Confucian Wisdom





The man who makes honor his main attraction
    Is bound to receive ridicule.
The man who makes philosophy is signboard
    Forever invites fault-finding.
Therefore, the gentleman
    Neither approaches evil
    Nor seeks a reputation for being good.
   Only in the gem of harmonious concord does he reside.

                                                                    ---Hung Ying-ming---
